Hickok is a small place located in Grant County, Kansas, in the United States. It is known as an "unincorporated community." This means it's a group of homes and businesses that don't have their own separate local government, like a city or town would. Instead, it's managed as part of the larger county area.

Where is Hickok Located?

Hickok can be found in the eastern part of Lincoln Township. It is situated along U.S. Route 160, which is a main road. This community is about 7 miles (which is about 11 kilometers) east of Ulysses. Ulysses is important because it is the "county seat" of Grant County. A county seat is usually the main town where the county government offices are located.
